Re: XEmacs Packages have been pre-released (2009-08-14-13)
How is SXEmacs handling hosting and mirrors? Do you have your own
network of mirrors?

Just wanted to let you know... I had an absolute horrendous time updating
my packages yesterday. tux.org really is total crap.
I'll pass on your complaints. They're in the process of installing
new hardware, but it's taking a long time due to the economy
... everybody seems to be doing the jobs that two people did 18 months
ago.
I had to curl the packages I wanted to update via HTTP to a local
directory and then use PUI to install from there.
You could of course extend PUI to do that for you ...
Please please please, find a better place to host the packages.
I don't have time for that personally.
Oh, I did try the Australian mirrors... one doesn't exist, the
other is out of date.
I'll ping Adrian, but he's not been terribly active lately. If he's
not in a position to follow up, I'll see what I can do about verifying
the mirrors.
